The current betting odds have the Blue Jays listed as a slight underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Blue Jays have looked great in their games this season with their 55-41 record overall which has them right at the top of the AL East. They have also looked great in their own ballpark this year with their 32-16 home record. Meanwhile, the Giants have looked good in their games this season with their 52-45 record overall which has them right in the middle of the NL West. They haven't been a great road team though with their 24-25 road record this season. The Giants have looked good lately as they are 6-4 in their last 10 games, but the Blue Jays are 7-3 in their last 10 and have been red hot lately with one of the best offenses in the MLB. They are also going to have a solid starter on the mound in this one as they are going with Lauer. Lauer is 4-2 with a 2.78 ERA this season and he hasn't been giving up many runs lately. He is coming off another good start in which he only gave up 2 earned runs and the team has had a ton of success with him starting, winning 6 of their last 7 games with him on the mound. The Giants have looked good lately, but they haven't been nearly as good on the road this year and the Blue Jays have the edge at home with Lauer and the much stronger offense. The best way to place a bet here is on the Blue Jays to win this game.

“I think we’re in a really good spot. Going into the second half, I like where we’re at. Obviously, [Sunday’s] game was tough, but we’re playing really good baseball, and we’re looking forward to getting to the second half.” - Robbie Ray on the team this season.

“Getting a franchise player and a homegrown player to grasp onto as an organization and a fanbase is such a good thing. Vladdy is everything you want in a player who’s going to be the face of your franchise going forward. He’s taken that ownership with the contract. I’ve watched him grow up in the game, and when you sign that deal, there’s certain expectations that come with that, and he knows that. He’s responded well. You don’t get those contracts very often. It’s a really good thing for our fans, for one, and to have that stability in the middle of our lineup for a lot of years to come is great for this team.” - John Schneider on Vladimir Guerrero Jr.
